John Cena removed from Saudi Arabia WWE show

As Rush delivered humiliating slaps towards Balor, he received a text from acting general manager Baron Corbin, demanding to meet with them.

The WWE is moving forward with Crown Jewel despite the ongoing investigation into the death of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi on October 2 at the Saudi consulate in Turkey.

Khashoggi had been a vocal critic of the current Saudi regime.

WWE's first ever World Cup ('to determine the best in the world.') will provide the bulk of the controversial Crown Jewel pay-per-view's content this Friday (2 November), as eight Raw and SmackDown stars compete across seven total matches. Over the next two weeks all mentions of Saudi Arabia were removed from the event's promotion both on television and online, but the show was never officially canceled.

McCoy listed as questionable vs. Patriots
Patriots running back Sony Michel is inactive with a knee injury, leaving James White and Kenjon Barner to shoulder the load. But just because he's playing well with his new team does not mean he will be treated any differently than anyone else.

"WWE has operated in the Middle East for almost 20 years and has developed a sizable and dedicated fan base", the statement read. "Full year 2018 guidance is predicated on the staging of the Riyadh event as scheduled". Bobby Lashley and WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle vs. Dolph Ziggler.

The victor of the one-night tournament will take home the World Cup trophy. Dean Ambrose and former partner WWE Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins appeared for a segment in the arena but they did not have the belts with them.

On Monday the official bracket for the tournament was released, pairing Lashley up with Rollins in the first round. The New Day will have their tag title rematch against Cesaro and Sheamus at WWE Crown Jewel this upcoming Friday.
